<p>New details emerged on Sunday about why CNN decided to fire star host Chris Cuomo on Saturday evening as the network conducted an investigation into Cuomo&#8217;s role in helping his brother, then-New York Democrat Governor Andrew Cuomo, navigate a sexual misconduct scandal.</p>
<p>Debra S. Katz, a left-wing attorney, said in a statement on Sunday that she is representing a client who claims that Chris Cuomo engaged in &#8220;serious sexual misconduct&#8221; against her at another network.</p>
<p>Katz said she notified CNN of the allegations on Wednesday and that the allegations are ultimately what led to Chris Cuomo being fired from CNN.</p>
<p>In a statement, Katz said:</p>
<blockquote><p><em>In the wake of public sexual harassment allegations against former Governor Andrew Cuomo, Chris Cuomo looked directly into the camera and told viewers of Cuomo Prime Time, “I have always cared very deeply about these issues and profoundly so. I just wanted to tell you that.” Subsequently, the Attorney General released jaw-dropping documentary evidence demonstrating that Chris Cuomo played an active role in attempting to smear women whom the Attorney General concluded had made serious allegations of sexual harassment and sexual misconduct against the Governor. Hearing the hypocrisy of Chris Cuomo&#8217;s on-air words and disgusted by his efforts to try to discredit these women, my client retained counsel to report his serious sexual misconduct against her to CNN.</em></p>
<p><em>On Wednesday, December 1, 2021, I contacted CNN to report my client&#8217;s allegations of misconduct against Chris Cuomo. By Friday, I was in discussions with CNN about providing documentary evidence of my client&#8217;s allegations and making my client available for an interview with CNN&#8217;s outside counsel. Last night, CNN acted promptly on my client&#8217;s complaint and fired Mr. Cuomo.</em></p>
<p><em>My client came forward at this time because she felt in sharing her story and related documentation, she could help protect other women. She will continue to cooperate with CNN&#8217;s investigation into her allegations. Given the nature of her allegations, she wishes to remain anonymous, and we ask that you respect this decision.</em></p></blockquote>
<p>CNN <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/breaking-cnn-terminates-chris-cuomo-effective-immediately-over-scandal">announced</a> the firing on Saturday evening, saying in a statement that during the course of their investigation, &#8220;additional information&#8221; came to light and that CNN will continue to investigate the allegations even though Chris Cuomo is no longer with the far-left network.</p>
<p>“This is not how I want my time at CNN to end but I have already told you why and how I helped my brother,” Chris Cuomo <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/breaking-chris-cuomo-releases-statement-responding-to-cnn-firing-him">said</a> in a statement. “So let me now say as disappointing as this is, I could not be more proud of the team at Cuomo Prime Time and the work we did as CNN’s #1 show in the most competitive time slot. I owe them all and will miss that group of special people who did really important work.”</p>
